NRL and the Penrith Panthers are not only leading the competition after only dropping one game this season but they are also the current Bats and Balls Champions. This season is a wild one with 6 agains and injuries being the main topic of disccusion rather than the quality of football beig played.

AFL and the Swan and Fremantle lead the field whilea group of teams are trying to run them down. It has been a really tough season for GWS and West Coast so far.

This episode The Producer goes solo as Josh recovers after having sugury.

NRL and the Eels were absolutely thumped by the Storm who are our NEW Bats and Balls Champions. Last years Premiers the Broncos were humbled by the Panthers which makes for an interesting Thursday Night game when the Broncos play the Eels. The Sea Eagles and Raiders had a classic golden point games and the Rabbitohs looked great against the Dolphins.

AFL saw the Swans blitz Carton in the second half to take the win. The Giants has a win against the highly rated Hawks while the Bulldogs beat the Lions. The Gold Coast Suns had a huge win against the Cats but face a much tougher opponent this week when they take on the mighty West Coast Eagles.
